The Montana Society hosted their 8th Annual Rocky Mountain Oyster Festival a few weeks ago in Arlington, VA at an American Legion Hall. This year the castrated bulls’ testicles were peeled and thinly sliced. Here is a picture of them in a tray right before they were fried.

My students brought it some awesome snacks today. In the case of the orange, it was more an awesome technique. The kid was slurping out the juice from each segment. Another kid brought this rice and cacahuazintle corn mélange. I asked her to ask her mom for the recipe!

Does anyone know if cattail pollen season is over? I hope not! If I can get my hands on some I am going to make some macarons using cattail pollen in the shells and acorn tapenade in the middle!
Although… this reminds me of the time I used chestnut flour to make macarons and I had to describe them as “rustic” because they were so lumpy and bumpy. They tasted really good though.
The best macaron I ever made, however, was the lobster macaron with lemon butter in the middle! My magnum opus. Let’s see if I can find a picture!
